Each product has a large description, for which I want to use Joomla articles. In each article I place the 'add to cart HTML link, to link it to the shopping cart. I have 3 variations for each product: free, small, large. The variation 'small' is the default variation for the product. I notice that the 'add to cart link' links to only one variation, the free one. Once you hit the add to cart link, you automatically go to the registration page. 1- Can I create links that link to their respective variation? 2- Can I set it to the add to cart instead of to the registration page? Out of the box (free version) I have not enough options on the product listing: An image, the price, the name and choose options. It would help me a lot if I can add a description to it. (and link it to an article with a longer description). Also I like to change the text in the button 'choose options' to 'choose version'. How do I do that? At this moment I'm building with the starter on localhost. If what I need can be done with the commercial version, I'm more than happy to upgrade to the essential or business package.")
